Dedicated to resolving your post production problems.
Machine Control and Synchronization Products: CB Electronics' products are the digital glue that merges new and old technology for film and TV post-production. Colin Broad won an Academy Award for this work and his design work is also used by leading manufacturers such as Harrison, Studer, SSL and Soundcraft.
The IS-1 is a standard for remote ISDN synchronization of picture and sound and is used by major studios. The VS-1 Video Streamer can be found around the world on Re-Recording and ADR stages providing TC-driven visual sync cues. Colin's SR series Serial Controllers and MR series Machine Control Systems keep mix theaters, transfer bays and DAWs in sync and motion. Need to run synchronous multiple frame rates simultaneously (Time Code or Biphase)? CB Electronics has the solution.
Word clock, any flavor LTC or VITC time code, Sony 9 pin, house sync and bi-phase can all be used to synchronize the other elements, using CB Electronics' products. Mix theater motion control; video streamer sync cues; transfer bay master control; video insertions of TC, User Bits and Feet and Frames; remote ISDN recorder control; and extended workstation machine controls are all in their product range. Visit www.colinbroad.com for the full story, and call or e-mail us for a system quotation or consultation to solve your problem.
